COVID-19 SAFETY PROTOCOL

The health and safety of our campus remain our highest priority, and together we can follow these steps to keep our campus community safe:

DO NOT COME TO CAMPUS IF YOU ARE SICK.
If you have any common symptom of COVID-19, Do Not Come to Campus except to visit the drop-in COVID-19 testing site.

REPORT POSITIVE COVID-19 CASES OR EXPOSURES.
To assist with contact tracing and prevent the spread of COVID-19, report all COVID-19 positive cases and exposure involving staff, faculty, and students using the confidential and secure COVID-19 Reporting Form.

COVID-19 Self-Reporting Form

On-site Testing: 
Testing is available through Virus Geeks and consists of a self-swab test. Results are typically available within 2 days but might be delayed during peak, high demand time periods. Please provide your Gavilan ID number or present your Gavilan badge for identification purposes. This is a walk-up site with no appointment necessary. Please remember to follow all safety protocols including wearing a mask while on campus for testing.

Testing For All Students and Employees:
Location: North/South Lounge - Located behind the Student Center
Date/Times: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays 10am to 3pm

Testing for Student Athletes and Coaches Only
Location: Gym Hallway
Date/Times: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays 12:30pm – 4:30pm

Employees should self report to their supervisor or the HR department if:

  • Test Positive for COVID-19
  • Experience COVID-19 symptoms
  • Have possible COVID-19 exposure through close contact
  • Employees with COVID-19 symptoms should stay home and get tested
  • View the Testing and Isolation Protocols

N95 Masks
